Conservative Activist Candace Owens Criticized By Fans for Anti-Atheist Tweet – Patheos

Conservative commentator Candace Owens, known for her criticisms of the Black Lives Matter movement and the Democratic Party in general, was called out by her own followers after she posted a tweet that condemned not just leftism but also atheism.

Owens faced an avalanche of criticism from what appears to be primarily conservative atheists on Saturday when she said that leftism, atheism, and narcissism are a packaged deal. She typically sticks to right-wing political arguments, and it appears she unknowingly gathered a substantial secular following.

The comments in response to Owens tweet are almost all negative, including those from her most ardent supporters and those with the most reactions at the top. The first reply I saw was, Totally missed the mark on this one Candace followed by Not at all true and Why would she even write this?

Here are some more:

Some followers even suggested the ill-received tweet was part of a pattern of false tweets.

The negative comments didnt go unnoticed, either.

Regardless of where you stand on the political spectrum, it should be surprising that this many atheist conservatives not only exist, but also that they actually stood up to Owens, whom they clearly support. Im sure it surprised her.
